Carmelo Anthony, meet the rim.
Late in the first quarter Tuesday, the Knicks forward was fouled going up for a layup against the Portland Trail Blazers. After the foul, Anthony grabbed the ball and went up for an emphatic slam.
Unfortunately he met the rim, fell over and slid to the free-throw line.
It wasn’t the most graceful move, but Anthony laughed it off. Portland, however, had the last laugh, winning the game 104-85.
